Hove Bags Race 10

National Greyhound Week 285 Maiden Sprint

Prize Money: $1,152

SEVENOFDIAMONDS (1) is an honest type in the frame at eight of 23 starts including eight wins, the latest scoring (16.11) over 277m at Central Park. Form here at this distance is sound. Drawn the rails and rates a key runner. SIGNORA VELOCE (3) shapes well after a swift run last time, finishing second in an A4 at this track in 29.90. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. DEREKS CHAMP (2) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (16.51) from Box 2 at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to be in the finish again. STHENO (5) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Comments

Comes off a (16.11) win last time, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a D1 over 277m at Central Park. Strong record at this track and trip with two wins and three placings from six starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Turned in a better effort over 285m at this track last start, finishing third behind Bingo Bullet in a D1. Looks a solid contender.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just a nose into second over 500m at this track. The recent effort suggests she is ready to win.
